Glenn Thames

Glenn Thames is an attorney with a practice encompassing intellectual property litigation, alongside estate planning, probate, and business litigation. While his current firm, Potter Minton, emphasizes a broader litigation and transactional practice, he has a notable background in patent litigation, particularly in the Eastern District of Texas.

Historically, Thames has represented defendants in patent litigation, as indicated by his tracked appearances. His experience in intellectual property litigation is also highlighted in his firm's description and various legal profiles. He has been a regular speaker at the State Bar of Texas Advanced Patent Litigation Conference and the Eastern District of Texas Bench/Bar Conference, and has authored articles in professional journals such as IP Litigator. This suggests a focus on the procedural and strategic aspects of patent cases, particularly in a prominent patent venue.

Thames's experience includes serving as counsel for Weil, Gotshal & Manges in a past tracked case. Currently, he is a managing shareholder at Potter Minton. His speaking engagements and publications further illustrate his engagement with patent litigation topics, including "Patent Damages Hot Topics" and "TC Heartland's Effect on the Busiest Patent Venues." Although specific outcomes for the "Untitled case" are not detailed, his continuous involvement in patent litigation discussions suggests a robust understanding of the field.

While specific IPR/PTAB experience is not explicitly detailed in the provided information, his extensive involvement in patent litigation and his admission to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit would suggest familiarity with post-grant review processes. He earned his J.D., cum laude, from Baylor University School of Law in 1992 and is licensed to practice in Texas.
